Alpine MRV-1507 V12 Amp
I had my amp tested today at the Audio shop and am wondering if this is what other people see from their amps.
Specs say @ 14.4V
900x1 @ 4 ohmn Bridged RMS
1,500x1 @ 4 ohmn Bridged MAX
The audio shop tested it @ 14.4V and got:
1,237x1 @ 4 ohmn Bridged RMS
2,078x1 @ 4 ohmn Bridged MAX
Im driving 2 Alpine 12" Type Rs (DVC) @ 4 ohmn and the thing hits like no tomorrow. The speakers are rated @ 300 RMS and 1,000 MAX. Should I upgrade the subs since Im getting so much power?

you could boom w/ those speakers if you dont crank the juice too much.... if you like cranking them full power then i would get others....of course i would wait untill those speakers of mine blow but then again thats just me! LOL

i have about 5 customers that have the 1507 running either 2 or three type r's, and it is fine either way, but you have to control your amp and tune it correctly. Just because a person buys a set of subs with a higher wattage capacity doesn't mean that they will last any longer or sound any louder. The box that the subs are in is more important to the overall equation than the amp or the subs themselves
